Why Is Vincent Dole Influential?

(Suggest an Edit or Addition)

According to Wikipedia, Vincent Dole was an American doctor, who, along with his wife, Marie Nyswander , developed the use of methadone to treat heroin addiction. Dole and Nyswander, in establishing methadone maintenance treatment , improved treatment options in addiction medicine which for a century had been based on the conventional view that narcotic addiction was the result of an intractable moral defect. His work resulted in the partial re-legalization of opioid maintenance in the United States. For this contribution he was a recipient of the 1970 Canada Gairdner International Award, and the 1988 Albert Lasker Award for Clinical Medical Research.
